What is the best currency to use in Norway? obviously it is best to convert your currency to Norwegian money and use the local Krone as it is accepted everywhere in Norway. American dollars and other major currencies like British Pound or Swiss Franc are not readily accepted in most business establishments, however some major hotel chains, restaurants and shops may accept US dollars at an agreed upon exchange rate.

Can I use my credit cards in Norway? Major credit cards, like Mastercard and Visa, are widely accepted within Norway (at hotels, restaurants, shops, travel agencies etc.). American Express is less common and can attract surcharges if you are able to use in an establishment - therefore check before you use it.
